Now with a renewal of internal components particularly that parallel flow evaporator... and R134 could work as intended (I have never had problem with the r134 system in my Nissan; Japaneses know how to make AC systems, germans dont!!!). |
When I lived there very few people I knew even had A/C on their cars. With a latitude the same as upper New England and Canada, you don't need it. It's more or less an afterthought for the US marked.
